Moto Honda da Amazonia, Honda’s Latin American motorcycle manufacturing hub at Manaus in Brazil, has just celebrated production of 20 million bikes since it was established in 1976.
Fittingly, its 20-millionth unit was a CG150 destined for Brazilian customers, latest version of the CG series for which it is best known. Manaus has built more than ten million CG125 variants, mostly for emerging markets in Latin America and elsewhere. It also supplied CGs to the UK and Europe until this pushrod single was superceded by the CBF125, sourced from even-larger Honda manufacturing operations in India.
